Yeah I haven’t bought a physical copy of Jump since the 90s when I would occasionally get a copy to flip through so I am not aware of what is actually running new via the app other than obvious titles.

I mean, Gintama had at least two TV reruns and Mikl posted:Jump series tend to run six, seven, eight years at most, even the most wildly popular of them. Naruto and Bleach were outliers at fifteen years each, and One Piece and Hunter x Hunter are extreme outliers at twenty-three and twenty-two years, respectively. (Thought Hunter x Hunter doesn't really count.)

Onmi posted:Like... I'm not saying he can't die, I'm just saying that it's an utter loving crock of poo poo if he does given everything the series has been trying to say. Yeah, Horikoshi literally had All Might look directly at the reader and say he wasn't going to die, I don't know how much clearer it could be.

All Might shouldn't die, but we should still see the moment where Nighteye's vision showed him dying and show how All Might/Deku/everyone else defies that fate.
|

Regardless of whether he does or doesn't, the scene addressing it still needs to happen, it's not just going to get quietly dropped and never mentioned again.

Wild prediction here: the vision Nighteye saw was Shigaraki/AfO killing All Might and Deku prevents that fate by saving Shiggy from All For One.

Wasn't "kill All-Might" one of the main motivations driving Shigaraki? That plus All-Might's feeling of guilt over Shigaraki being Nana's grandchild and his inability to save him should probably be also addressed in some way before the manga ends.

That plus All-Might's feeling of guilt over Shigaraki being Nana's grandchild and his inability to save him should probably be also addressed in some way before the manga ends. Shigaraki wanted to kill All Might, but it was less due to personal animosity and more due to the fact that All Might was the living symbol of the society Shigaraki hates and wants to destroy and killing him in a public manner would have accomplished that destruction pretty nicely. When All Might lost his powers and retired in an extremely public manner it sort of made that motivation moot - killing him at this point might make people sad, but it's not going to massively shake peoples' confidence in society like the active #1 hero losing a fight(or getting outed as a villain-adjacent rear end in a top hat) would.

Was the traitor not Hawks? I always thought the traitor was Hawks. It’s been awhile since I read that stuff though so I assume there’s a good reason he has been ruled out.

The traitor - if there was one and it isn't just a dropped plot thread or something handwaved away which it probably is - would have had to be someone familiar with the specific scheduling and movements of the UA Hero Class when they were taking specific precautions to hide the class's movements and location. Hawks doesn't work at UA or have any real connection to it that we're aware of.

I will say that we've seen every student at some point during this raid except for Monoma. EDIT: Also, the Vigilantes Vol. 11 cover is great: Rhonne fucked around with this message at 21:46 on Dec 24, 2020 |

Hawks doesn't work at UA or have any real connection to it that we're aware of. I've seen theories that the 'traitor' was actually Kurogiri. He has the body of a former student so he might (depending on how much he's been allowed to remember) already know the UA layout, allowing him to easily teleport around the campus and get whatever info he wanted. Hell, he might even still have access to Shirakumo's student ID info and could potentially use it to access internal computer systems. It'd probably be flagged pretty quickly and shut down but the assumption wouldn't be "Shirakumo is back from the dead and a villain" but rather "someone is using a dead student's ID in order to not be caught."

Onmi posted:Nighteye "The future can't be changed, I predicted a grisly demise and I've never been able to change my visions, I've lost hope. But Deku managed to defy my visions and give me hope that the future is not fixed." Basically this; if he was going to die the narrative timing was when he did his final fight with All For One and he defied the dead mentor tropes there when everyone thought he was going to. If he dies in the story I imagine it's going to be at the end of the story, probably due to his wound or something, rather than any kind of brutal end as predicted. Possibly like, passing away during the final fight as Deku does his final smash to blast the ghost of AFO out of the villain with the power of all of the OFA predecessors behind his fist.

All Might is my favorite Superman subversion. Too many works go “what if Superman was a bad guy???” All Might is just as heroic as Superman, it’s just destroying him to be that way

This being The Injury makes perfect sense. All Might's running 72 hours without sleep, he's overextending, and All For One is, in turn, overcommitting. This is the perfect time for both of them to come at each other desperate and sloppy.

It's nice to see Nighteye not being awful for once. Also, All for One's talk about Quirk imbalances being the defining trait of a villain reminds me of that Ultimate X-Men comic where Wolverine kills a kid whose power is "Make people near me spontaneously combust from the inside out".

Blueberry Pancakes posted:It's nice to see Nighteye not being awful for once. It also speaks to the philosophy of MHA as a whole where their society is so preoccupied with order and a definition of "normal" that those who fall through the cracks by failing to meet their standards become labelled as "villains." All for One can make anyone become a "villain" simply by meeting a certain standard of disturbing the peace, as we've seen throughout Vigilantes.

lol there's a reason I pastebinned it instead of using our spoiler tags. Only posted it since it's gonna be another whole week before it shows up officially. Incidentally I wish we had the clickable spoiler tags other forums have where it literally hides them in a frame with a button so you can't just mouse over it.
